Health Stories for August 6th

I have not been posting a lot lately being so busy with the move  so I missed telling you about a few interesting stories that I have seen lately. Here are just a few that seem to have been  underreported.

Cnet has reviewed their view of the top 5 iPhone apps. The iPod has long been a fitness mainstay and the iPhone is an extension of the the usability of the iPod except that you can download many applications to it. Cnet has done a good job of reviewing a few of the best apps for fitness for the iPhone.

More kids are getting hurt in gym class. The Diet Blog has the stats and the answers as to why more kids are getting hurt in gym class (hint: kids are not as coordinated as they used to be) The article was a real eye opener to me as I have a couple of kids that I push to exercise as much as possible but I worry that it may not be enough.

Fit Shack had a weight loss call that I missed. I was a day late in seeing this and maybe a couple days late in leeting you know. JoLynn at the Fit Shack had a free call where you could learn some weight loss secrets. I just checked and by signing up you can listen to a recording of the call (long distance charges may apply depending on where you are calling from), but the info should be really great.

How many fruits and veggies are enough? Pauls health blog has an article about why the USDA recommends 9 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Sounds like a lot but these are the key to a healthy diet
